Resumen de Trends in International Tourism Flows, 1990-2000
Compiling a world overview of outbound tourism volumes is not an easy task, as data are limited and fragmented. In this article data on inbound tourism by region of origin are used to estimate a matrix of inbound–outbound tourism flows. Based on this information worldwide international tourist arrivals by region of origin and destination are analysed for the period 1990–2000. Aggregated data are presented on the (sub-) regional level and thus a useful framework is provided for understanding tourism flows in the world, and to and from the various (sub-)regions over time.
